Best Answer

Alexander the great was leading an army to conquer what he believed was the eastern end of the world - India. He then intended to turn west and conquer Western Europe, which he thought was the western end of the world. Then his ego would be satisfied - to have conquered the world. His name would live forever. In times before belief in an afterlife, people could live on in people's memory. Alexander didn't want to be great, but the greatest so he would be remembered most and forever.
